The GADS team is growing and we are experiencing an increased demand for our services. We are looking to recruit another suitably qualified and experienced CBT Therapist to join the team to provide psychotherapy, counselling, support and therapy sessions to clients. The role involves providing in-person appointments to clients at our offices in Glasgow city centre.

This role is NOT suitable for newly qualified practitioners (1-3 years). We are looking for experienced practitioners who have been qualified for at least 3 years.

We are looking to see a minimum of 5 clients per week (although other work will be available here and at our other should you want extra clients). We do all the admin, advertising, getting the clients, arranging appointments, answering enquiries etc. - your role is to provide therapy sessions with the clients we refer to you.

This is a sessional self-employed affiliate role, however, you are very much part of a team and your will receive various benefits and discounts as part of your role. We regularly check in with affiliates and you will have access to individual and group supervision, networking events, discounts, updates and more. This is a flexible role that you can fit around your other commitments.

Here's some of the abilities, skills and experiences we are looking for:

  • Qualified therapist/counsellor/psychotherapist/psychologist (all modalities considered). We would also like to hear from practitioners with training in DBT too (if possible). We work from an integrative model, and prefer practitioners to tailor sessions as much as possible to each client's needs and way of working;
  • Qualified for at least 3 years;
  • Experience of working with anxiety and depression, as well as a range of other concerns (as you will receive clients from our other practices too);
  • Preferable that you have worked with at least over 30 different individual clients experiencing anxiety and depression.
  • Be willing to work face-to-face in our offices in Glasgow city centre (although some online appointments might be offered too).
  • You must have current professional and public indemnity insurance, PVG/Disclosure, membership of a counselling/health/psychotherapy/psychology professional body, current ICO Data Protection certificate and HMRC self-employment registration is required (or be willing to achieve these)

Here's what we can offer:

  • £38/hour (rates will be higher for corporate/insurance clients and other therapies)
  • Friendly, supportive and encouraging team
  • Comfortable working environment within luxury, well-equipped consulting rooms in Glasgow city centre
  • Flexible working arrangements that you can fit around other commitments
  • Fee annual membership to the Eating Disorder Therapist Networking Group; discounted clinical supervision (should you wish to work with our supervisor); access to 3-4 free support and supervision groups for affiliates, per year; free monthly support drop-ins, team meetings;  opportunity to pick up extra client work; invites to events; other opportunities; and referrals from our other two practices, should you want them; free networking events; support from the team - you are not alone

We are currently looking for therapists who can see clients during any the following times. You choose which times you want to work:

* Mondays, 9am-5pm (choose your hours)
* Tuesdays, 8am-2pm (choose your hours)
* Wednesdays, clinics are fully booked
* Thursdays, 8am-10pm (choose your hours)
* Fridays, 8am-10pm (choose your hours
* Saturdays, 4pm-10pm (choose your hours)
* Sundays, 8am-10pm (choose your hours


You can choose which clinic above you wish to work (you can choose more than one, depending on how many clients you wish to see) and we will set a clinic up for you.

Focus on.... Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (or EDNOS)

Focus on.... EDNOS/OSFED Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (or EDNOS) is now increasingly known as OSFED (Other Specified Feeding and Eating Disorder) accounts for the highest percentage of eating disorders. EDNOS/OSFED is just as serious and debilitating as any other form of eating disorder and needs to be taken more seriously. Unfortunately, however, in our experience, this is often not the case and many are not given appropriate treatment or support (whether from family, friends, professionals and others) and the condition can deteriorte and even change into another form of eating disorder. WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT EDNOS/OSFED? Then read on..... EDNOS/OSFED is the most commonly diagnosed eating disorder in clinical settings.

EDNOS/OSFED describes a form eating d...

BODY IMAGE AND BODY DYSMORPHIC DISORDER: What is it?
